Small room.

I stayed for 2 nights 9/5 and 9/6. I was given room 144. Just off the front desk. The room was clean. But the room was on the small size. Especially the bathroom. Sitting on the toliet my knees were inches from the wall in front of me. I tried turning on the TV, but all i got was no signal. Other than the small bathroom and feeling like i was in a closet, everything was good.

Very pleased with my stay

The employee who checked me in was cordial. The room was clean and tidy. There was very little noise. One thing to be aware of is the room size. I was alone and booked a room for one person. The bathroom was very small. I am 5'2" tall, and my knees almost hit the wall sitting on the toilet. The shower stall was barely big enough for me. While I didn't have a problem with this, a big person would. Just be aware of that if you want a solo room.

Our weekend stay was satisfactory for what it was! It's definitely a budget stay but there was nothing glaringly wrong. The musty smell on the second floor and in our room would be the only thing worth commenting. Good for what you pay!

Not a bad little place

The staff was super friendly and easy to work with. The rooms were clean and everything was in working order. We booked 3 rooms, two of them didn't have great water pressure, but 1 had amazing water pressure. The mattresses aren't super comfy, but we're comfortable enough. The linens were clean and the Heat/AC worked good. The negatives Bring a pillow, the ones there are pretty thin Continental breakfast was pretty non existent, which was fine for us, we just grabbed something from the ez mart It was located close enough for everything we wanted to do and there were a lot of food places around. The road noise is pretty insane there, so if you're a light sleeper, plan accordingly. Everyone we encountered was friendly and more than willing to help, which is a plus! I definitely wouldn't be opposed to staying again. It's a good deal for the price.
